Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has full power and authority (corporate, statutory and otherwise) to execute and deliver

1.15       If
the Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust, employee benefit plan, individual retirement account,

1.19       The
Subscriber understands, acknowledges and agrees with the Company that this subscription may be rejected, in whole or in part, by

the Subscriber of notice of acceptance of the Subscriber’s subscription.


 


1.20       The
Subscriber acknowledges that the information contained in the Transaction Documents or otherwise made available to the Subscriber
is confidential and non-public and agrees that all such information shall be kept in confidence by the Subscriber and neither used
by the Subscriber for the Subscriber’s personal benefit (other than in connection with this subscription) nor disclosed to
any third party for any reason, notwithstanding that a Subscriber’s subscription may not be accepted by the Company; provided,
however, that (a) the Subscriber may disclose such information to its affiliates and advisors who may have a need for such
information in connection with providing advice to the Subscriber with respect to its investment in the Company so long as such

reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim, lawsuit, administrative proceeding or investigation
whether commenced or threatened) (a “Loss”) arising out of or based upon any representation or warranty
of the Subscriber contained herein or in any document furnished by the Subscriber to the Company in connection herewith being untrue

		II.	REPRESENTATIONS BY AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY



 


The Company hereby represents
and warrants to the Subscriber that:


 


2.1       Organization,
Good Standing and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Nevada and has full corporate power and authority to own and use its properties and its assets and conduct
its business as currently conducted. Each of the Company’s subsidiaries identified on Schedule 2.1 hereto (the “Subsidiaries”)
is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation with
the requisite corporate power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to conduct its business as currently conducted.
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any of the provisions of their respective articles of incorporation,
by-laws or other organizational or charter documents, including, but not limited to the Charter Documents (as defined below). Each
of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where
the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not result in a direct and/or indirect (i) material
adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Securities and/or this Agreement, (ii) material adverse
effect on the results of operations, assets, business, condition (financial and other) or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, or (iii) material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to perform in any material respect on a timely
basis its obligations under the Transaction Documents (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse Effect”).


 


2.2       Capitalization
and Voting Rights. The authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company is as set forth in Schedule 2.2
hereto and all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
Except as set forth in Schedule 2.2 hereto, (i) there are no outstanding securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
which contain any preemptive, redemption or similar provisions, nor is any holder of securities of the Company or any Subsidiary
entitled to preemptive or similar rights arising out of any agreement or understanding with the Company or any Subsidiary by virtue
of any of the Transaction Documents, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries is or may become bound to redeem a security of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary has any stock appreciation rights or "phantom stock" plans or agreements or any similar
plan or agreement; and (iii) except as set forth in Schedule 2.2 there are no outstanding options, warrants, agreements,
convertible securities, preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase or acquire, any shares of capital stock
of the Company or any Subsidiary or contracts, commitments, understandings, or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary
is or may become bound to issue any shares of capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, or securities or rights convertible
or exchangeable into shares of capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.2 and as
otherwise required by law, there are no restrictions upon the voting or transfer of any of the shares of capital stock of the Company
pursuant to the Company’s Charter Documents (as defined below) or other governing documents or any agreement or other instruments
to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of
the Company are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and the shares of capital stock of the Subsidiaries are owned by the
Company, free and clear of any mortgages, pledges, liens, claims, charges, encumbrances or other restrictions (collectively, “Encumbrances”).
All of such outstanding capital stock has been issued in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. The issuance
and sale of the Securities as contemplated hereby will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities
to any other person (other than the Subscriber) and, except as set forth in Schedule 2.2, will not result in the adjustment
of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of any outstanding security. The Company does not have outstanding stockholder
purchase rights or “poison pill” or any similar arrangement in effect giving any person the right to purchase any equity
interest in the Company upon the occurrence of certain events.

and to limitations of public policy. The Securities are duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the applicable
Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and free and clear of all Encumbrances other than restrictions
on transfer provided for in the Transaction Documents. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.3 hereto, the issuance and sale

licenses, information and other proprietary rights and processes necessary for its business as now conducted and as presently proposed
to be conducted, without any known infringement of the rights of others as set forth on Schedule 2.14 and which the failure
to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”). Except

alleging that the Company has violated or, by conducting its business as presently proposed to be conducted, would violate any
Intellectual Property Rights of any other person or entity. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures
to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could
not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

business as presently conducted.


 


(c)       Neither
the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company’s business by the employees of the Company,
nor the conduct of the Company’s business as presently conducted, will, to the Company’s knowledge, conflict with or
result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument
under which any employee is now obligated.


 


(d)       To
the Company’s knowledge, no employee of the Company, nor any consultant with whom the Company has contracted, is in violation

the continued employment by the Company of its present employees, and the performance of the Company’s contracts with its
independent contractors, will not result in any such violation. The Company has not received any written notice alleging that any
such violation has occurred. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.14, no employee of the Company has been granted the right
to continued employment by the Company or to any compensation following termination of employment with the Company except for any
of the same which would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the business of the Company. The Company is not aware that any officer,

Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities
other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, to the Company or
to an affiliate of a Subscriber or in connection with, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company
an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion

Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Subscriber under this Agreement.

TO THE COMPANY. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.


 




    	 	 	13



     


    

  


5.2       Listing

theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under
such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement securities.
If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any securities is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may
require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.


 


5.5       Furnishing

Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file
within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange

without registration under the Securities Act within the requirements of the exemption provided by Rule 144.


 


5.6       Securities
Laws; Publicity. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Company shall, by 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the second

terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and including the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto to the extent required

notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).


 


5.7       Form
D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation
D promulgated under the Securities Act and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of the Subscriber. The Company shall
take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the
Securities for, sale to the Subscriber at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states

consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents.


 


5.9       Indemnification. 


 


(a)       The
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees,
agents and controlling persons (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all
loss, liability, damage or deficiency suffered or incurred by any Indemnified Party by reason of any misrepresentation or breach
of warranty by the Company or, after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement to
be performed or complied with by the Company under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Company will promptly
reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel) as incurred in connection
with the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim related to or arising in any manner out
of any of the foregoing, or any action or proceeding arising therefrom (collectively, “Proceedings”),
whether or not such Indemnified Party is a formal party to any such Proceeding.


 


(b)       If
for any reason (other than a final non-appealable judgment finding any Indemnified Party liable for losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses for its fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct) the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Party
or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by an Indemnified
Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other, but also the relative fault by
the Company and the Indemnified Party, as well as any relevant equitable considerations.


 


5.10       Non-Public
Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents,
the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other person acting on its behalf, will provide Subscriber or its agents
or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto Subscriber
shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and
confirms that Subscriber shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.


 


5.11        Use of Proceeds.

6.2       Except
as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall not be changed, modified or amended except by a writing signed by the parties
to be charged, and this Agreement may not be discharged except by performance in accordance with its terms or by a writing signed
by the party to be charged. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement
shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision,
condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair
the exercise of any such right.


 


6.3       This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and to their respective heirs, legal representatives,
successors and assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of Subscriber (other than by merger). Subscriber may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any person
to whom Subscriber assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect
to the transferred Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents.


 


6.4       The
Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters,
which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.


 


6.5       Upon
the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Subscriber and the Company, this Agreement shall become a binding obligation
of the Subscriber with respect to the purchase of Securities as herein provided, subject, however, to the right hereby reserved
by the Company to enter into the same agreements with other Subscribers and to reject any subscription, in whole or in part, provided
the Company returns to Subscriber any funds paid by Subscriber with respect to such rejected subscription or portion thereof, without
interest or deduction.


 


6.6       All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed
by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of
conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto
or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state
and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or
in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement
of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding,
any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper
or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding.


 


6.7       In
order to discourage frivolous claims the parties agree that unless a claimant in any proceeding arising out of this Agreement succeeds
in establishing his claim and recovering a judgment against another party (regardless of whether such claimant succeeds against
one of the other parties to the action), then the other party shall be entitled to recover from such claimant all of its/their
reasonable legal costs and expenses relating to such proceeding and/or incurred in preparation therefor.


 


6.8       The
holding of any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction shall not affect
any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement shall be
declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced in whole or in part, such provision
shall be interpreted so as to remain enforceable to the maximum extent permissible consistent with applicable law and the remaining
conditions and provisions or portions thereof shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and enforceable to the extent
they are valid, legal and enforceable, and no provisions shall be deemed dependent upon any other covenant or provision unless
so expressed herein.


 




    	 	 	17



     


    

  


6.9       It
is agreed that a waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate, or be construed, as a
waiver of any subsequent breach by that same party.

Company agrees to execute and deliver all such further documents, agreements and instruments and take such other and further action
as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.


 


6.11       This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall together
constitute one and the same instrument. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery
of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or
on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature
page were an original thereof.


 


6.12       Nothing
in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any rights in any person or entity not a party to this Agreement.
